Ruthless Games

Two years ago, a split-second decision changed everything. I risked my life for a man I didn’t even know and nearly died for it. I’ve tried to forget him. To forget that whole night. But he hasn’t forgotten me.

Two years ago, a split-second decision changed everything. I risked my life for a man I didn’t even know and nearly died for it. I’ve tried to forget him. To forget that whole night. But he hasn’t forgotten me. He’s been watching. Obsessing. Craving. And when he crashes back into my life like a wrecking ball, accompanied by two dark shadows — men he calls his brothers — the life I’ve been trying to rebuild for myself shatters into a thousand sharp-edged pieces. He believes our souls are bound by blood, and he’s come back to claim what’s his.

The game is over…for now. But once again, three simple gunshots have blown my world to pieces. I came back from the darkness last time. I pulled my life back together. This time, though? I don’t know how to do that. Secrets are buried deep in Halston. Alliances are formed in darkness. And vengeance is the only balm for a broken heart.

The lies will come crumbling down...and the bodies will start piling up. Once upon a time, I saved Marcus Constantine’s life. Then he, Theo, and Ryland saved mine. But that’s not enough anymore. It’s not enough to just survive. I want a future with these men. I want peace and happiness. And the only way to find it is through war. We’re done playing defense. This time, the game won’t stop until the blood of our enemies runs as red as the roses on my tattoo. Because it’s a different game now, and we make the rules.
